Rotherham vs Leicester Lineups, Match Preview, and Team Information

Rotherham

Fighting for survival in the Championship is something that is on the mind of every Rotherham fan. The team is without a win in their first three games with the worst defense in the league having conceded eight goals. Grant Hall, Jamie Lindsay, Shane Ferguson, and Lee Peltier are injured.

Probable lineup: Johansson, Humphreys, Bramall, Blackett, Lembikisa, Tiehi, Cafu, Rathbone, Odoffin, Green, Hugill.

Leicester

The fact that Leicester have won three league games and their EFL Cup opening match should prove to the fans that the management doesn't have the intention of playing in the Championship for the long term. Conor Coady is out with an injury, but the rest of the seems to be in good health with a positive attitude as the games increase.

Probable lineup: Hermansen, Pereira, Faes, Doyle, Vestergaard, Dewsbury-Hall, Ndidi, Winks, Iheanacho, Madivadua, Mavididi.

Player to Watch: Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall

A surprising figure has come out for Leicester as they are trying to gain immediate momentum in their quest to get back into the Premiership a year after being relegated. Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall has been raised in Leicester's academy and went through all the selections until he finally managed to break into the senior squad a couple of years ago.

This season with some important players leaving the club, he got a chance to shine. He started every game and played each minute available during the opening three league games. Dewsbury-Hall thanked his manager for the vote of confidence by scoring twice and assisting on a single occasion.
